The Terrorist Vote

Is Al-Qaeda's supposed endorsement of John McCain for president real, fake, reverse psychology, or reverse-reverse-reverse psychology? Melissa Joyner-Sykes, associate director for Central Asia policy analysis coordination at the Institute for Asymmetrical Warfare and Global Confrontation Metrics is not a real person. She joins Bob to discuss the implications of the endorsement.

Before the disclaimer my wife and I were checking the calender. No, it wasn't the first of April. This was hilarious. With the country in a tailspin and the presidential campaign getting nastier, it certainly was time for a little comic relief. To bad some of your right wing listeners did not catch that this was a send up of Al-Qaeda's foolishness. Way to stick it to our enemies!

well its faIRLYOBVIOUS WITH ALLL THE MONEY OBAMA IS SPREADING AROND THAT THE STATIONS AND NEWSPAPER WOULD BE ON HIS SIDE FOR THE MONEY AND THEN HE SAYS HE WILL FIX THE ECONOMY BUT WHERE IS HE GOING TO STEAL THE MONEY FROM(BIG BUSINESSES?) THE MAINSTAY OF YOUR ECONOMY

Before hearing the disclaimer at the end, I'd already applied Duct Tape to my head to keep it from exploding. Boy, is it going to hurt to remove! P.S. Sometimes a quote from The Princess Bride IS just what is needed.

Three minutes devoted to a fake person commenting on a web story just to make a princess bride comparison.

When the media has asserted itself through its traditional watchdog role as the fourth branch of government.Is attempting to check and balance the executive branch through biased media coverage via the continued maintenance of a narrative.And enhancing the Obama campaign by performing a basketball style block out of the McCain campaign.

Members of the media have decided who they want to win this election and OTM is taken aback when Republican's don't yell back after being pushed down the hill "As you wish"

There are way to many media stories out there to devote this much time to fake interviews, however popular fake news is on comedy central.
